🔍 Key Concepts

• oil fire behavior over time (pool fires vs. contained fuel) • heat buildup and flash point of surrounding materials • effects of prolonged burning on firefighting efforts (radiant heat, spread, access)

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to temperature and flame intensity as an oil fire continues without being fought. • Consider whether prolonged burning makes it safer or more dangerous for firefighters to approach and apply extinguishing agents. • Ask yourself how the chance of reignition changes if surrounding structures, tanks, or deck areas are heated for a long time.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option matches the general principle that early attack is critical in marine oil fires. • Check which choices clearly conflict with what you know about increasing heat, spread, and damage over time in a fire. • Eliminate any option that suggests an oil fire becomes easier to manage the longer it burns.
